Allergies and sinus drainage seem to be causing many problems for us in Houston. Thanks to cold fronts,which have brought mountain cedar pollen with them, we have been experiencing high tree pollen counts. I've also noticed trees in bloom already in my neighborhood, so keep an eye on the pollen counts as we head into our traditional allergy season. And remember, that allergy symptoms can include stomach upset (from sinus drainage) and a light-headed, dizziness. Houston is prime for allergies due to our long growing season. We have great weather in the Spring that welcomes us outdoors. Just remember that pollen may be in the air and covering us as we enjoy the great outdoors. Such things as showering and changing clothing after being outside can cut down on continued exposure to pollen. So be sure to have your baseball players shower after practice...for more reasons than just this!
Parents have reported to me that we have had a few cases of the Flu, diagnosed by doctors. These children have not had the high temps that normally go along with the flu. Please let me know if your child is diagnosed with the Flu, or any other contagious illness.
